1. Sophisticated water -saving technology |
Without the AquaClic, a 5-minute shower requires 3 dl of heating oil!

Example of annual savings in a family of 4 by using AquaClic watersavers on faucets and in the shower:
- 40,000 liters of water
- 1,300 kWh of energy or 130 liters of heating oil
- Water + energy costs totalling some CHF/€/US$ 300
- approx. 400kg CO2 from hot water
- Payback period is approx. 5 months, details

But I already have water savers! Because your water strainer looks like an AquaClic's, you might think that you are already making savings at your faucet. But the strainer is just responsible for a nice even distribution of water by mixing it with air, that's all. learn more
That's why the water stream looks white and is not transparent like at the village pump (“laminar flow”). The relevant faucet part is called an aerator (because it mixes in air), a spray tap, water nozzle, “Perlator” or “Neoperl”, the last two from major aerator manufacturer Neoperl. Only when water-saving technology has been incorporated into the part is water (and energy) actually being saved, and then it can be truly called a flow restrictor, flow controller, water saver nozzle, flow regulator or, quite simply, an AquaClic, because we believe that we are the first manufacturer to make technical nozzles into decorative and instructional environmental devices, which thanks to how they look lead to increased savings on a sustainable basis.

Real-life example of reduced costs and savings on water and energy
The M. family of Thalheim recorded how much water they saved over 3 years using AquaClic on faucets and showers. |

From an eco-perspective, is it even worth it to buy new saver filters and showerheads?Yes! Because AquaClic – which are manufactured entirely in Switzerland
– will save the following over their minimum 12-year service life (and
yes, we know they last even much longer under normal circumstances):
- 55,000 times more water and
- 40,000 times more energy
than was consumed during their manufacture. Read more about the eco-balance |

2. The design
|
 |
There's nothing artful about conserving water by using a plain
technical water saving device on your faucet – family, guests, renters,
students, customers or employees would have no idea of your commitment
to the environment – and not change anything in their environmental
behavior either. |
«Allegro» by Zurich artist Nadine Lanz |
Art – in the truest sense of the word – is
rewarding your family, guests, renters, students, customers or
employees with the sight of artistic AquaClics each time they wash
their hands. At each washing, the AquaClics reaffirm to them that
they're doing the right thing – and right now – to help protect the
environment or save energy and costs. And as a side benefit, they will
automatically change their behavior to use water and energy more
conscientiously. |
